WATCH:Proposed Calgary bylaw banning public marijuana use given green light

Four notable malls in Calgary will be getting dispensaries: Chinook Centre, Southcentre Mall, Deerfoot City Mall and Midnapore Mall. A yet-to-be-constructed retail centre in the new Legacy community in the city’s southeast also received an approval for a cannabis store.

Three Second Cup locations got approvals and will be part of the National Access Cannabis network of dispensaries.

The historic Palace Theatre on Stephen Avenue also received an approval to open a cannabis store, partnering with Westleaf.

As of Thursday, August 9, 155 decisions have been made on the 187 applications made in April — 83 applications have been approved and 11 are pending approval.

You can see a map of the approved locations below.

In reviewing the applications, the city looks for compliance with land-use bylaws, concentrations of stores within the neighbourhood, conformity to separation distance requirements, comments from the public and “overall compatibility with the community in which it is proposed.”

The City of Calgary said that as of August 10, all of the April applications have been reviewed.

What is a Sativa?

Sativa strains of medicinal marijuana are usually uplifting and stimulating. If you’ve ever smoked or ingested cannabis that makes everything funny and puts you in a great mood, it was probably from a Sativa strain. It creates a feeling of comfort, non-drowsy, and usually introspective highs. The effects of smoking or ingesting a Sativa makes them particularly popular among artists and creatives. The most popular medicinal benefits range from treating mental and behavioral problems, to treating depression, stress and ADHD.

What is an Indica?

The major difference between Sativa’s and Indica’s is while a Sativa can make you feel alert, active, and aware, an Indica will have a relaxing feel on the body. The physical effects of an Indica strain commonly include a drowsy and mellow mood with stress and pain relief. Indica’s are one of the more suggested strains when using it for medicinal purposes as it effectively treats sleeping disorders such as insomnia, fibromyalgia, body aches and pains. Indica’s are also commonly used for treating Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Fibromyalgia and Lupus

Why Choose Hybrid?

The benefits to smoking or ingesting a Hybrid strain are simply as follows. Hybrid’s offer the best of both worlds combining several qualities of each containing strain. Some Hybrid’s are Indica dominant, which will offer pain relief and / or mellow mood, however may contain up to 50% Sativa so it will not make you too drowsy. Other’s may offer a Sativa dominant strain, which will encompass several calming benefits and pain relief, but also give a mellow, yet energetic high.
